Core Volunteer Roles

Hotline Operator
Hotline Operators provide advice to the public and coordinate rescue responses as needed.

Rescuer
Rescuers perform welfare checks and rescues, which may involve transporting koalas to veterinary clinics.

Carer
Carers are experienced rescuers who specialise in rehabilitating sick, injured, or orphaned koalas.

We provide comprehensive induction, training, and ongoing mentoring in a supportive and collaborative environment. No prior experience is necessary.

What You Will Learn

Our training, mentoring and ongoing educational focus means that you will gain significant knowledge and understanding about:

• The biology, behaviour, and challenges faced by koalas, as well as the treatments they require.
• Every aspect of rescue, rehabilitation, and care, with the ultimate goal of releasing koalas back into safe habitats.

By joining our team, you’ll become a well-informed advocate for koalas, ready to provide advice and support to those concerned about their well-being.
